Abstract

This study aims to improve the sprint running skills of grade V students of SD Negeri 17 Kelapa through a basic technique training approach using the Classroom Action Research (PTK) method. The research subjects amounted to 32 students who were selected using the total sampling technique. The main instruments of the research were a 50-meter sprint running skill test and observation of student activities during learning. The implementation of research is carried out through two cycles of action, each of which includes the stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Pre-cycle results show that most students are still in the category of sufficient and deficient, with only a few students classified as good. After the application of basic engineering exercises in cycles I and II, there was a significant increase in skills, shown by the percentage of students in the good and excellent categories which increased from 18.8% to 56.3%, while the less and less categories decreased to zero. Observations also showed an increase in student motivation, participation, and activeness during learning. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the systematic and gradual application of basic technique training is effective in improving the sprint running skills of grade V students of SD Negeri 17 Kelapa. This strategy not only improves motor skills and sprint techniques, but also has a positive impact on students' motivation and enthusiasm for learning.
